I have been thinking about blogging for a long time, mostly because it will give me an outlet to write down things that the boys say and do and share them with friends and family. I am excited about this, because I enjoy telling stories about my sweet children, especially ones when they're not exactly very sweet!
Today was an interesting day with Jackson. Actually, he's always getting into things, and today was no exception. After lunch I asked him to go upstairs to pick out his books and get ready for his afternoon nap while I finished nursing the baby. After about ten minutes, Grant said, "Where's Jackson?" Well, I thought, hmmm, he has been uncharacteristically quiet, so I went to find him. Grant & I searched all over the house calling his name. He finally ran out into the upstairs hallway and announced he had been hiding in my closet. So, I said, "Okay, go get your books and get ready for nap." He did and I put him down, then put the baby down, checked on Grant to make sure he was set for his rest time downstairs and headed to my bed for a little rest. When I walked past my closet I saw that Jackson hadn't been hiding really, as much as unloading every pair of shoes I own into a large pile outside my closet door, as well as dumping out an entire box of nursing pads and pulling out all of my tote bags and shopping bags. Later this evening he dumped out a large plastic bin full of baby clothes I just brought out to go through for Harrison. He wanted to play in it, of course. That boy only wants to sing and play and acts like he can't hear you when you ask him to do something. He's sooo sweet, but such a challenge. Last week I was upstairs changing the baby's diaper and when I started back downstairs, I saw that Jackson had spread all of my pots and pans up the stairs so he could make a clubhouse in the cabinet. How funny!
